Using the Intel
User Interface
This section provides an overview of the Intel
Modular Server System MFSYS25/MFSYS35. The Intel
Interface (UI) provides complete system hardware management by enabling users to
securely configure and monitor the system. The system is intended to be managed over a
secure, private management network. It is recommended that the Intel
Module not be connected to a publicly accessible network.
Full system management is only supported via the Intel
addition to the Intel
information remotely via SNMP. For information regarding SNMP v2 and v3 support,
refer to the installed Unified Firmware Update (UFU) Release Notes.
This section covers the Intel
instructions for configuring the modular server system.

Introduction

The Intel
user interface that IT administrators can use to monitor and configure the Intel
Server System MFSYS25/MFSYS35. This GUI is referred to as the Intel
Server Control UI. No CDs or additional installation steps are required to use the UI. To
initially launch the UI and configure the system hardware, a default static IP address and
user account are provided. After logging into the UI, IT administrators can:
•
Quickly access system and component information.
•
Configure and manage storage subsystems, including but not limited to:
— Create, delete and/or rename a storage pool
— Create, delete, rename and/or reassign a virtual drive to a compute module
— Create or delete hot spares
•
Configure and manage switch modules, including but not limited to:
— Assign internal and external ports to a virtual LAN (VLAN)
— Configure external port settings
— Launch an Advanced Configuration for additional switch configuration features
•
Quickly view hardware inventory, system event logs, storage allocation and system
configuration reports.
•
Easily view current status for all hardware components (servers, hard drives, switch
modules, storage control modules, management module, cooling modules, and power
modules).
